Here’s to hoping that you and your family have a Happy Easter, Passover or whatever and that you and your family don’t end up like this guy of if you do, at least we hope you’ll have lots of Easter candy to cure your munchies.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) - Officers who pulled a man over for running a red light found a plush Easter bunny stuffed with marijuana in the car, police say.

The man had trouble finding his insurance documents Wednesday and asked to look for them in the back seat, police said.

When he stepped out of the car, the officer smelled marijuana and saw some on the floor, police said. The officer searched the car, found two baggies of marijuana in the glove box and saw the bunny. Inside the stuffed animal, which was holding an Easter basket, they found 16 small plastic bags of pot, police said.

What a festive way to celebrate the Easter holiday. The only way it could be more festive is if he hid them in a giant chocolate Jesus.

But why hide it in a giant Easter bunny and why slander the Easter Bunny’s good name? Just think of how suspicious parents are going to be when he starts handing out candy next year.

Lawrence now faces charges of marijuana possession, possession with intent to distribute and motor vehicle violations from the police department as well as making children cry.
